Chapter 82 The Capital of Mercenaries
Chapter 82: Mercenary Capital
"Is Lax a non-evolutionary?" Sween came to a conclusion based on Aiolos's words.
"No, I heard from the third elder that a hundred years ago a butterfly girl looked just average. Many people don't want her. Only one orc royal family member, a lion man from the Rhine tribe, accepted her. Unexpectedly, when the butterfly girl was twenty years old, she suddenly evolved and became the most beautiful girl in the Butterfly Man. Fifteen or sixteen years old was just the most common time for the Butterfly Man to evolve, but it was not absolute."
"Many people don't want her?" Sween was a little confused about Aiolos's words, and looked at Aiolos curiously. He obviously didn't understand the meaning of this sentence in his mind.
"In the Orc Empire, once a butterfly man without male or combat power becomes an adult, he will be given as a gift to the nobles in the Orc Empire as concubines and slaves in exchange for other butterfly man's living space and food."
"Uh, they are so miserable, they are all orcs, and they still do this?" Sween seemed a little unbelievable about what he heard.
"Hehe, they are all orcs?! There will be status and class among the people of the same clan, let alone the butterfly man and other races." Aiolos was very disdainful of Sween's unremitting world.
"Okay, don't cry anymore." Leilong looked at Lux who had been crying, and his head became bigger. "I'm thinking now, how can I make you safe. Do you have any suggestions?" Leilong looked at Lux, hoping that she would give herself a direction, such as sending her to a certain place. Unfortunately, the answer to Leilong was to shake his head.
"Forget it, taking one step is one step, but I want to tell you that when we encounter danger, we may leave alone without caring about you." Lei Long looked at Lux solemnly, "If you want to better protect yourself, the best way is to improve your abilities."
"But I can't do anything." Lux looked at the Thunder Dragon innocently. Although the Thunder Dragon seemed to be fierce to him, his keen feeling as an orc told him that the person in front of him really cared about him.
"It's okay, you can't learn it!" Lei Long looked plain, "In the future, Sween will teach you martial arts, and Aiolos will teach you knowledge."
"What about you?" Sween and Aiolos said in unison after hearing the Thunder Dragon's words.
"I naturally have my own work to do. Have you all forgotten your identity?" Lei Long looked at the two of them, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Uh..." Sween and Aiolos then remembered their identities in front of the Thunder Dragon, as if one was a follower and the other was a servant. Anyway, they were both identities without status.
"Okay, I'm going to bed, and I'll continue to rush tomorrow. Given that there may be unknown dangers tonight, I decided to make Aiolos more vigilant tonight, and the patrol mission will be handed over to you. Well, go to bed." After saying that, Lei Long turned around and left Lux's room and returned to his own room next door. Sween and Aiolos looked at each other, shook their head helplessly, and walked out.
What the Thunder Dragon expected but unexpected was that the Dark Union did not make any restless moves against the Thunder Dragon and the others. Everyone spent the night in peace.
After breakfast, Lei Long and the others started their own itinerary again and walked towards the mercenary capital. With Lux, Lei Long and the others immediately dropped a lot. Fortunately, they had spent the previous few days on the road and walked more than half of the way, so they would not be in a hurry. However, after getting on the road, Lei Long and the others realized that the biggest problem facing them was not that Lux did not know how to do martial arts, but that her delicate body and inconvenience between men and women.
At the beginning, in order not to drag everyone down, Lux asked to sleep in the open like everyone else. However, after a day, Lux, who was covered in blood, could no longer take a step. Moreover, after sleeping in the open for a night, Lux was infected with a cold again, which caused Lei Long and the others to have a headache.
In the wild, with Aiolos, Thunder Dragon and the others didn't have to worry about the attack of any monsters. The naturally radiant dragon power made all the surrounding monsters avoid it, let alone attacking themselves. And Lax's problem became the biggest problem on the way. As a result, Thunder Dragon and the others had to rent a carriage for Lax in the next city of the Weitian Empire. Of course, the journey naturally turned into sightseeing. Sween was very happy, while Lax was full of guilt.
A few days later, Lei Long and the others finally left the Wei Tian Empire and rushed to the mercenary capital on the wasteland between the Wei Tian Empire and the Aolai Empire. Of course, after arriving here, the carriage could not be used anymore. However, after a few days of special training by Lei Long and the others, Lux was no longer as delicate as it was at the beginning. Lux was already fully capable of rushing with Lei Long and the others, but the speed was much slower than Lei Long and the others usually.
After changing out of Lax's troublesome and fancy clothes, Lax now wears light leather armor. The dedicated women's tying armor tightly wraps Lax's huge chest, and the flexible leather armor close to the body reflects her perfect body and graceful curves. The long blue hair tied behind her head is softly draped on her shoulders, fluttering in the strong wind of the wasteland. The originally delicate face shows a unique charm under the blowing of wind and sand. The agile eyes, bright red lips, and a faint charm in purity. The butterfly girl of the orcs is worthy of being a race that is more charming than the elves and foxes in terms of beauty.
The closer we get to the mercenary capital, the more people we meet on the road, of course most of the people here are mercenaries. Because of Lux's beauty, we have encountered some trouble on the road. Of course, regular mercenaries will naturally not be ill-treated against Lux, and at most they can only take a few more glances. Those who dare to come up to provoke are those mercenaries who have no eyesight and strength. Let us observe two minutes of silence for those arrogant mercenaries who are not strong but are very timid. I don't need to say what their ending will be. I guess everyone should know.
Lei Long and the others came to the mercenary capital between the Weitian Empire and the Aolai Empire one evening. The mercenary capital was a gathering place for many mercenaries, so there was no need to worry about not having hotels. Moreover, many small outer cities were built outside the mercenary capital, Hongyue City, to receive people like large mercenary groups.
Lei Long and the others naturally wanted to live in the mercenary capital, but what Lei Long and the others did not expect was that they still needed a mercenary card to enter the mercenary capital. This is naturally not that the mercenary capital does not allow ordinary people to enter, but now it is the annual mercenary conference held by the mercenary capital. There are countless mercenaries and caravans from all over the world. If everyone wants to live in the mercenary capital, the mercenary capital naturally cannot accommodate so many people, so some people are preparing to watch the lively mercenary union arrange it in the small town on the periphery.
Just when everyone thought there was no way, and they had to wait for the Kalin mercenary group to pick them up, Lei Long actually took out a mercenary card from his body.
When the guards saw this mercenary card, they immediately let Lei Long and the others go. After seeing this mercenary card, the hotel owner in the Mercenary Capital immediately arranged a room for Lei Long and the others, and then congratulated Lei Long for achieving good results in this competition, which made Lei Long and the others confused.
After contacting Kayan Kashui and the others, Kayan Kashui immediately came to the hotel where Lei Long lived. In the mercenary capital, Kayan and Kashui and their subordinates also had a great reputation. After all, it was Kalin mercenary group that won the Fourth Mercenary Group of the Aishi Continent for several years!
When Shihn saw Kayan and Kashu, his face was full of excitement and asked them to help him get a mercenary card, wanting to participate in this mercenary conference. Of course, what he wanted most now was to meet his father, the leader of the Kalin Mercenary Group - Sword Saint - Shi'ang. Unfortunately, Shih was not in the Mercenary Capital because he went to the Aolai Empire to complete some tasks, and he was expected to come back in five days. Kayan and Kashu and others received the letter from the Great Elder to Lei Long and others. In this case, the Great Elder asked Kalin Mercenary Group to take Lei Long as the head and participate in the mercenary conference held by the Mercenary Capital this year.
At the request of Lei Long, Lei Long and his team walked towards the Mercenary Union Hall located in the Mercenary Capital. This mercenary conference will be held in ten days.
The crowds on the streets were bustling, and there were still ten days to be the mercenary meeting, but the abortion on the street was no less than the abortions seen by Lei Long at the auction in Yinyue City. The more you walked to the Mercenary Union General Hall, the more people there were, and all kinds of people opened Lei Long's eyes.
The building of the Mercenary Union General Hall is naturally extraordinary, standing in the center of the Mercenary Capital, and noisy voices come from it, indicating the high popularity inside. Lei Long and others step in.
The content has been changed on the big blackboard that usually publishes tasks. The task has been replaced on a small blackboard temporarily placed. On several large blackboards, there are the registration list of the competition and the mercenary group list. Among the top ten mercenaries last year, except for the seventh-ranked Overlord Mercenary Group and the ninth-ranked Tiankuang Mercenary Group, which did not register, the other seven mercenary groups still registered this year. And the Kanfeng Mercenary Group, which became the third-ranked first last year, the Saint Tout Mercenary Group and the Weilong Mercenary Group are still the most popular mercenary group of the year, because everyone knows that the gap between the mercenary groups cannot be compensated in just one year. Just like the Kalin Mercenary Group, they have been fighting for several years but have not been able to reach the top three. This shows that there will be no big changes between the leading mercenary groups. The lower the gap between the mercenary groups, the easier it is to change the rankings.
On another large blackboard, Leilong found his name hanging high on it.
The title on this blackboard is: The individual competition is free from the top 100, and the mercenary title of Thunder Dragon is hung in the middle. It is written as follows: Just two tasks have become a high-level mercenary. The B-level three-headed giant python mission and the A-level violent earth dragon mission have made him a miracle in the mercenary world this year. Dawn, this mysterious mercenary, has the strength to avoid entering the top 100.
"What is this?" Lei Long asked Kashui next to him curiously. Looking at the words above, Lei Long understood something in his heart, but he was not very clear.
"This! This is the selection of individual mercenaries within the mercenary union. As long as the selected mercenaries do not have to participate in the qualifying competition in the mercenary conference, they can directly advance to the 100-strong competition. These are reserved specifically for those individual mercenaries. Of course, they must be registered before the competition. Mercenaries who have not registered will be treated as giving up."
After hearing Kashui's words, a smile appeared on the corner of Thunder Dragon's mouth, "It's not very good if you don't have to participate in the qualifiers!"
Leaving everyone, Lei Long walked towards the registration office of the individual competition. After submitting the mercenary card, Lei Long received a sign that entered the top 100 competition in the respectful expression of the waiter. Then the waiter of the Mercenary Union added a hook to a box below the dawn of the big blackboard.
"Wow!" Everyone present looked at the Thunder Dragon who had just obtained the brand, but they just took a look. After all, in such a huge event, anyone you meet may be someone with a certain reputation in the mercenary world.
"Wow! So majestic." Aiolos looked at the surprised gaze of others looking at Thunder Dragon, and became excited. He immediately registered mercenaries with Sween at the Mercenary Union and participated in the individual competition. Of course, they were going to fight slowly from the preliminaries.
Kayan and Kashu also looked at the Thunder Dragon in surprise. They obviously didn't know that the Thunder Dragon was the dawn that had caused a lot of controversy in the mercenary world this year.
After everyone finished their own affairs, they returned to the hotel together. The days were boring. Lei Long and the others had basically listened to Kayan and Kashu talking about the mercenary group and the distribution of mercenary groups on the mainland in the past few days. During the talk, Lei Long and the others finally discovered one of the advantages of Lux. She was able to remember many things that others had said without forgetting.
On the sixth day after Thunder Dragon and his friends arrived at the Mercenary Capital, the Kalin Mercenary Group finally completed the task they received and returned to the Mercenary Capital. Of course, the happiest of everyone was Sween.
Shi Ang is a middle-aged man with a unique temperament. He was wearing a fiery red shawl on his shoulders, and a terrifying heroic spirit appeared between his eyebrows. His aura was not as strong as the warriors he had encountered before. However, the moment he faintly exuded his aura, he felt that he was almost indulging in a breath. Leilong and Aiolos naturally looked free under his might, while the others next to him showed an unspeakable sense of difficulty.
Chapter completed!
